Description

The tutorials are not up to date with the current game mechanics. In "To the Mun, part 2", the parachute on top of the capsule has a pressure of 0.01 and altitude of 500m set, sending the capsule crashing into the ground at 60 m/s, killing Jeb and failing the tutorial. The tutorial has not been updated to the new default values of 0.04 and 1000m.

To quote someone from reddit:

Yeah, it's a problem with the tutorial craft. The craft was saved to sfs file using older chute parameters that haven't been changed for the new aerodynamics.
It's annoying, but .craft and .sfs files take their part stats from the savefile, not the parts .cfg file.

This was with the aero changes from 1.0.4 to 1.0.5. I'm pretty sure its gone with 1.1, since the tutorials seem to have been completely redone (but I have not yet run them again).
